Nope.

Lots of good games in the pack you don't own though.

So the games I already have, will it just double up in my library, or will it just show the one copy, I dont what it taking up room showing that I have two copys of the same game..

Nope. The "extra" copies will be discarded. If you add it to your cart and go to checkout you'll see something like:

† Note: You already own the following items in "THQ Hit Collection". You will not receive extra copies of these items when you complete this purchase:
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl
Titan Quest
Titan Quest - Immortal Throne
etc.

I wouldn't buy anything yet - there's a different deal each day this week, you might get some of what you want cheaper separately.

Last time I tried it, it was hard but i didnt give it a fair go as I had Batman Arkham Asylum at the time and always played that...

Yea I got the pack also, lol.... And some people say Steam is expensive for new games, I say wait a few months and it'll come on a deal like this at some point...

Metro is a very good game and at £3.74 it's stupid not to try it.

Make sure you turn Depth of Field off and Tessellation whilst playing it though.
